Unhappy problems with rear shocker alignment

hi guys i was wondering if you can help trying to fit rear shockers on my tornado build but the alignment of the lower shocker mount on the rear upright seems to be out of alignment with the upper mount by almost an inch or so the upright is loosely mounted in its natural rest position do i need to extend the lower brace to push the bottom of the upright towards the rear of the car or am i fitting things wrong

Re: problems with rear shocker alignment

I'd think you'd need to get the upright back further if I am looking at that correctly.
